Re: Jess’ lip

[Izzie]

Have tried everything Val, hibiscrub, flannels, the lot.

Its been recurring over the last 9 months give or take, its not ingrowing hairs, there isnt any hair there

Thinking may have to go to a diff vets altogether as this vet hasnt got a clue

Poor Jess, have you tried a warm wet flannel it does sound like ingrowing hairs, the wet flannel can open the pores and you should then be able to roll the hairs outwards.
If you can’t do this then it’s the vets for Jess as it’s infected but I have to say she may need the lip removed as ingrowing hair can cause all sorts of problems as it just keeps growing.
Poor lass try the flannel

Has flared up badly, she now has pus coming out of part of it too

still have the black spots there, they wont disappear- thought it was cause of Livia arriving on the scene, and hanging off them.

The right hand side is the side badly affected, the hair is falling out from it, and its swollen slightly.

Vet said first it was ingrowing hairs, then is to do with her glands (at the time she was on AB’s as it the same time as her toe).
